Perhaps reasonable, but:
jwp(at)torch[]:python/release31-maint/Include 0% ls /src/build/py32pg90/bin/py*
/src/build/py32pg90/bin/pydoc3 /src/build/py32pg90/bin/python3-config /src/build/py32pg90/bin/python3.2-config
/src/build/py32pg90/bin/python3 /src/build/py32pg90/bin/python3.2
3.x doesn't have a "python" link by default, so the user will have to make one in order to get ./configure to select it.
